This appointment follows a recruitment process led by CCI Executive Search in partnership with the Cali - Care and Learn Ireland Board.
Caroline is an experienced leader in housing and social care having held senior roles over the last decade, firstly as Director of Housing Services and HR with Dublin Central Mission and most recently as Director of Operations with Oaklee Housing. She brings a proven track record in strategic leadership, partnership development, organisational change and entrepreneurial skills.
Speaking about Caroline’s appointment, the Board of Cali - Care and Learn Ireland say: “We are delighted to welcome Caroline as she takes up the role of CEO. She brings a wealth of experience and expertise which will help drive Cali’s growth and development. Cali was founded to address a gap in the provision of a formal Further Education Pathway for school leavers with a Profound Multiple Learning Disability (PMLD). As CEO, Caroline will lead the Cali team which works in partnership with participants to support their chosen goals in education, well-being and inclusion.”
Caroline added:“I am thrilled to join Cali - Care and Learn Ireland as Chief Executive Officer at such a pivotal moment in their growth and development. What drew me to Cali is their clear vision and commitment in providing further education with care and multidisciplinary therapy to school leavers and young adults with severe to profound intellectual disabilities.
It’s a privilege to lead this innovative organisation that is transforming lives, and I am committed to bringing fresh energy, strategic vision, and a strong focus on growth and inclusion to ensure Cali fulfils its goals in the years ahead. I look forward to working alongside a talented and dedicated team, who empower our participants to lead self-directed lives of their choosing.”
We wish to congratulate Cali on this important and timely appointment and wish Caroline and everyone on the team the very best of luck with this exciting next chapter!
